God of NBA point guards

Chapter 248
Outside the locker room of the home team, Zhou Quan made a suggestion to Chuck Daly to let the assassins play and restore the three-back style of play.

Isiah Thomas only played 5 minutes in the first half, and the team kept falling behind. Chuck Daly didn’t dare to replace Zhou Quan. Can't deal with that Lightning guy."

Zhou Quan nodded and said, "I know that. On the offensive end, I'm still going to defend against Lightning. Assassins defend against Dan Marley, and Joe goes to the third position. Dan Marley's athletic talent is mediocre. Defense against him depends on experience. Assassins may be able to do it."

"Let me think."

Chuck Daly frowned and considered the suggestion.

Zhou Quan wanted the Assassin to play the No. [-] position. Naturally, he hoped that he could play without the ball and change his style of play. Maybe there would be a turning point. At worst, he could catch the Suns by surprise.

"Try it."

Zhou Quan's off-ball is really good. Chuck Daly agreed to this suggestion after thinking it over.

At 9:35 p.m., the second half began, and both sides basically put in the starting lineup. The Suns replaced backup power forward Tom Chambers and the Pistons replaced the Accelerators.

Barkley and Kevin Johnson were also taken aback when they saw the Assassins playing and the Pistons playing a three-back tactic.

"I'll fix him."

Lightning said to Barkley confidently.

Although he also suffered a serious injury, his recovery is much better than that of the Assassin. The Assassin is no longer at the top level, not even first-rate, and now at most a second-rate level, and he can barely maintain his peak state, no matter how bad he is, he is still first-rate The level of point guard.

"Is Iron Fist off the ball?"

Of course, Paul Westphal knew that Zhou Quan could play off the ball, and he played very well. Even Jordan had a headache for his off-ball running in the penalty area.

"Kevin, be careful of his off-ball running position. It's up to you to defend him. Only your speed can keep up with him. Leave the assassin to Lei Gong." He hastily said to Lightning.

"I?"

Kevin Johnson was taken aback, but could only nod.

He played less games with Zhou Quan. When facing each other, Zhou Quan always holds the ball, so he has no experience with Zhou Quan's off-ball style.

Pistons attack.

Sekali, who had been pulling out to play, did not come out, but was in the penalty area.

As a result, the four major insiders of both sides are crowded in the paint area, which is a bit crowded.

At this time, Zhou Quan entered the penalty area from the left wing, and Lightning followed closely, but two seconds later, he was stuck inside, and Zhou Quan ran out from the right end of the free throw line.

The assassin passed the ball, and Dan Marley seemed a little inflexible enough to defend against the small, and failed to defend the pass.

Zhou Quan caught the ball in the right elbow area and made a jump shot. When he took off, Lightning jumped out from inside, one step away from him. When Lightning took off to block the shot, his ball had already been released.

"brush!"

Splashes appeared and two points were hit.

"Running without the ball in the penalty area is Tekken's signature technique, haha!" Bill Walton laughed.

Lewis Williams said with a smile: "So we must let the assassin go up. Only his passing and cooperation can seize this open opportunity."

Bill Wharton nodded and said: "If the pass is half a beat slower, Lightning will catch up with Iron Fist, and the open space will disappear, so Iron Fist's off-ball style of play requires the cooperation of a passing master.

Although the assassin's athletic quality is not good, his experience is still there, and his passing ability is still there. He is qualified for the task of passing the ball for Iron Fist. "

Sun attack.

Zhou Quan half bent his body, defending and retreating in the backcourt, preventing the lightning from rushing up.

After Lightning pushed across the center line, he pulled the ball high between his ribs, his shoulders swayed violently, and his right hand was pressed on the back of the basketball. In the next moment, he will speed up and break through from the right side.

"Chance!"

Just as the lightning shook his shoulders and pulled the ball high, Zhou Quan's nerves tensed and he responded instantly with a steal.

He himself is proficient in various breakthrough techniques, and he is too familiar with breakthroughs with one-handed feints. The breakthrough action of lightning can also be turned around.

His left foot quickly stepped forward to the left side, and while leaning over, he stabbed the ball with his left hand.

Sure enough, in the next instant, Lightning reacted, turned around, and changed hands to control the ball at the same time.

But almost at the same time, he withdrew his left foot, and quickly moved his right foot one step to the right rear side.

Just as Lightning completed his turn, Zhou Quan saw the ball with his full-level panoramic vision, crossed Lightning's body with his right hand, and instantly hit the ball that was dribbling towards the floor.

"Snapped!"

The basketball rolls toward the center line.

"Grab... break it!"

The roar of the bearded John Rowes, the on-site commentator, sounded immediately, like an alarm.

"what?"

Lightning was startled, and hurriedly turned around to look for the ball.

At this time, Zhou Quan, who had a better vision, had already rushed through the lightning to catch up with the ball, quickly blasted the ball, pulled the ball up from the floor, and then slammed it over the center line.

"Shet!"

When Lightning started to return to defense, he was already two steps behind and could no longer catch up.

"boom!"

Zhou Quan reached the free throw line, threw the ball to the backboard, then jumped up in one step, caught the ball with both hands in the air, and smashed it violently.

"Oh hoo!"

2 people raised their arms and shouted, and the shouts were overwhelming.

"yeah!"

The bearded John Rowes stood up excitedly, grabbed the microphone on the table and shouted loudly: "Steal + self-throw and self-dunk, now it's time for the iron fist performance, and our counterattack has begun!"

"The Suns should be careful, they only lead by 6 points. If Iron Fist recovers, this point is nothing at all." Bill Walton reminded.

"Are the Pistons going to counterattack?" Williams said excitedly.

"We have one more." Lightning roared loudly.

"One more." Barkley shouted.

Lightning advanced to the frontcourt, Zhou Quan strengthened his defense, preventing him from having a chance to break in. In addition, he was intercepted just now, so he passed the ball to Barkley.

Barkley received the ball on the left wing, but this time he didn't hit back. Instead, he used Richard's pick-and-roll to get rid of Rodman and hit the penalty area with the ball.

Sekali moved up and sideways to block Barkley, but Barkley was very flexible, changed direction, and slammed into the penalty area along the baseline.

Rodman, who caught up, followed closely behind, but he had completely lost his position, and Sekali was attacked, and the Pistons' basket was empty.

Zhou Quan rushed down from the high position to help defend, and Barkley happened to emerge from under Sekali. He didn't see him. He hit the basket with a dunk, and he jumped up and slapped him. The precision strike function exploded.

"Snapped!"

The ball was fanned into the sky.

"Oh hoo!"

The Palace of Auburn Hills once again rang out with huge whoops and cheers.

"Big hat, Iron Fist big hat, Flying Pig in the air, he does what he says, he said he wanted to block Barkley, haha!" bearded John Rowes shouted excitedly.

"..."

The must-go dunk was slapped by Zhou Quan, and Barkley was a little confused.

"Snapped!"

The ball did not go out of bounds, Sekali grabbed the ball, handed it to Zhou Quan, and the Pistons attacked.

"Calm down, let's fight one."

Zhou Quan handed the ball to the assassin who came to meet him, and shouted loudly at the same time.

"Hit one! Hit one..." The audience began to shout, and the huge sound gradually rose.

Zhou Quan still made a turn on the left wing first, then turned around and entered the penalty area, but when Lightning followed, he turned around and came out again.

The defender is always passive, and Lightning is a beat slower.

Just when Zhou Quan entered the penalty area, the assassin was ready. When Zhou Quan turned around and returned to the left wing, he immediately turned to the right and made a pass to the right wing, but his ball was behind him, quietly Fly to Zhou Quan on the left wing.

"Back pass!"

Zhang Lili let out a loud shout.

"Snapped!"

Zhou Quan came out of the paint to catch the ball in two steps. At this time, Lightning rushed over. He immediately dribbled forward and broke through. Lightning stopped suddenly, but the next moment, he pulled back.

"False sudden real shot!"

Lightning paused in his heart, but he had already stopped there and couldn't get up.

Zhou Quan took off calmly, flicked his wrist, swung his five fingers forward vigorously, and the basketball flew to the basket.

"brush!"

"Oh oh oh……"

When the refreshing sound of brushing baskets sounded, the audience boiled instantly.

"call!"

Zhou Quan also breathed a sigh of relief, his touch finally came back a bit, he was able to dunk the dunk, and he was able to hit the open shot.

"Three of 3 shots, Tekken recovered in the second half, and his condition recovered. Oh, the Suns called a timeout." Zhang Lili said excitedly.

"Now it's 15 of 7 shots, and the hit rate is more than [-]%." Sun Zhenping said happily.

"51:55, the Suns only lead by 4 points." Bill Walton reminded.

Westphal did not have a special arrangement, he just wanted to interrupt the rhythm of the Pistons and give his side a chance to stabilize.

Regarding Zhou Quan's off-the-ball movement in the penalty area, he only explained one point, asking Dan Marley to strengthen the blockade of the assassin and lock his passing angle to the two wings.

Dan Marley had a headache, because his back was facing the penalty area, and he didn't know which side Zhou Quan would run to, and how to block it?

However, Westphal still had an idea. He asked Barkley and Tom Chambers to cooperate to try to prevent Zhou Quan from running freely in the penalty area, and at the same time try not to let Zhou Quan pass through the right wing. Go back to the original side so that Dan Marley can focus on locking the passing angle on that wing.

In addition, he asked Dan Marley to make a bold move to fight the small with the big one, and just stared at the assassin to fight.

At this point the timeout ends and play resumes.

"brush!"

Dan Marley made a false shot and hit a three-pointer on the assassin's head.

"Oh, Lei Gong played the ball so resolutely and accurately!" Bill Wharton exclaimed.

"Big and small, he has to be determined," Williams said.

51:58, the Suns lead by 7 points and the Pistons attack.

Westphal's method was still useful. This time after Zhou Quan entered the penalty area, he hit the wall and got stuck inside.

The assassin at the top of the arc had to pass the ball to Joe Dumas on the right wing. Joe Dumas singled out Richard and made a false shot.

A bunch of people grabbed the rebound in the penalty area, and the ball was picked up by someone, and then Rodman, who had the strongest second jump ability, grabbed this precious offensive rebound.

After receiving the ball, Zhou Quan pulled to the left wing, and Lightning followed him. He turned around, arched Lightning with his back, and then immediately turned around and stepped back to shoot a jumper.

Lightning stepped up to block the block, but didn't touch the ball, only to the wrist.

"Go in!"

This was a shot against the defender, Zhou Quan was not sure, staring at the ball flying towards the basket, he forgot to put his right hand down.

"boom!"

The basketball hit the basket, and Zhou Quan's heart jumped, but the next moment, the basket fell down and fell into the basket.

"Oh hoo!"

The whole audience burst into cheers.

4 out of 4 shots, Zhou Quan also pumped his fists excitedly and shouted angrily.

"Give the ball to Zhou Quan. His touch is starting to explode, so it's reasonable to give him the ball." Zhang Lili shouted.

"boom!"

This time Dan Marley still shot a three-pointer, just to bully the assassin to be shorter than him, but this time he missed.

"It's still mine."

Rodman grabbed the rebound and threw it to Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan launched a fast break, carrying lightning into the basket for a layup, but smashed the basket and jumped out.

But fortunately, he grabbed the rebound again, saw Dan Marley rushing in, immediately used a fake layup action, swayed Dan Marley and Kevin Johnson at the same time, and then got up again for a layup and hit a goal.

“漂亮！下半场周权6投5中，55：58，活塞只落后3分了。”孙真平兴奋地道。

"This feeling is really hard to say. It's coming! At the critical moment, Zhou Quan finally stood up." Zhang Lili laughed.

"brush!"

Twelve seconds later, Barkley ran to the left-wing three-point line to receive the ball and hit a three-pointer.

Next, the two sides entered into a fierce offense and defense.

After the third quarter, 80:80, the two teams drew.

"The Pistons scored 35 points in a single quarter and tied the score. They played really well," Bill Walton said.

"35:25, the Suns lost [-] points in one quarter, and we need to work harder in the final quarter." Williams laughed.

Bill Walton said: "In the third quarter, Iron Fist made 14 crazy shots, and made 8 of the next 4 shots. The feeling was not as good as before, but 15 of 9 shots, the shooting rate was as high as 60%, 2 of 2 free throws, and 2 of 1 three-pointers. With 21 points in a single quarter, it was his explosion that allowed the Pistons to tie the score.

With 21 points in a single quarter in the finals, Tekken has almost played the peak match of the Assassins, but in that finals game, the Pistons lost in the end, and the Assassins did not win that game with 25 points in a single quarter. I hope this time Won't. "

威廉姆斯说道：“铁拳三节打满，26投13中，命中率已经提升到50%，三分球4投1中，10罚8中，35分5篮板8助攻5抢断2盖帽3失误2犯规的数据。

Barkley was still in good shape in the third quarter, making 10 of 5 shots, but not as good as in the first half. He made 24 of 14 shots in total, and his shooting percentage was 58.3%, which was a drop of 6 percentage points from the first half.

另外三分球7投3中，6罚4中，现在和铁拳一样，都是35分，还有12篮板4助攻1抢断1盖帽2失误2犯规。”

Bill Walton said: "Barkley's performance on the offensive end is better than Iron Fist tonight, but Iron Fist performed better on the defensive end and assists. In the third quarter, he sent three steals and one block in a single quarter, so the two teams tied. gone."

Williams said: "Dan Marley misplaced the assassins in the third quarter, 6 of 3 shots, 5 of 2 three-pointers, 8 points in a single quarter, he and Barkley almost swept the Suns' shots in this quarter. It's a pity that Iron Fist performed better in this section.

In addition, let's not forget Rodman's rebounds. He has grabbed 17 rebounds and grabbed 7 in the third quarter. The Pistons took 3 more shots than the Suns in this quarter. His The role is very critical, and the Pistons cannot do without him. "
